The war talk has impressed upon the
public's mind more than ever the neces.
sity of maintaining and encouraging the
militia organizations. They must be the
nucleus of an army in event of war, and
they should receive more liberal appro.
priations from the States and from the
general government. They can no long.
er be denominated "feather-bed sol.
diers"; the members realize that they
may be called upon to fight, and when
necessary to do so they will not be afraid.
The passage of the bill for an armory at
Cincinnati is but tardy recognition OF
the necessity of the militia service and
the worth of that excellent National
Guard Regiment, Ohio's First.

those with hard roofs. Windmills are struck
90 times, and church and clock towers 80
times oftener than ordinary houses with hard
roofs. The marshy regions in Schleswig-
Holstein are the most dangerous; and the
land about inlets of the east coast the safest.
With like conditions, the relative danger de-

than in any part of Germany (about Heidel-

middle Rhine is the most dangerous part.
In the fifteen years, 1869-S3, there were
killed by lightning for every million men in
Prussia A. in Baden 3S. in France 81, and
in Sweden 80. The geological nature of the
ground, and especially its capacity for water,
has important influence. Thus, calling the
danger on lime 1, that for sand is 8, while
for loan it is %. This is partly why most
of south Germany and Austria is less dan

factors affecting the lightning danger to
